Ij 7 J 14. CALCUTTA, JAN. I3.—We have been favoured with the perusal of a letter from Bangalore, dated the • 19th of December. Toe General Court Martial had been then sitting for 20 days without intermis sion; and, as far as could be judged, there was lit tle prospect of their proceedings boing closed within a shorter time than six months. Eight Officers in all had conic to Bangalore to stand their trial, on 'charges conneiaed with the late cornmotions at the stations of the Madras army. The first trial which came on was that. of Lieut.- COL BELL, who, during the period in question, was the senior Officer in command of the gat riso:- . ) of sc ringapatam. The purport of the charges brought against .him was as follows :—lst, for . beading a most alarming and dangerous mutiny against the Go .vernment of Fort St. George; and, 2,d, for firing on the troops of his Majt,:sty and the Hon. on the 11th of August last. Lieutenant-Col, BELL closed his defence on the 17th ult. atter a trial of eighteen days duration. The defence Iva , : drawn up by Mr. MARSH, and is said to have been a most able produdion. Of the sentence of the Court no- thing of course can be known, until, it shall be pro mulgated in General afters. Several •of the Officers. who had been called to Bangalore to give evidence in Colonel .I.ist.t.'s case, had returned to, Seringapatatn. Captains WAHAB, PATTERSON, and SADLER, to, whom the option - of dtirnissal from the service, or of trial by Court Mar tial, was proffered by Go%ernment, had embraced, we understand, the former alternative, and had in consequence received orders to proceed to the Pie sidency, from whelice; it was Unde r stood, they, would embark for Europe. • SURREY SESSIOAS.

Whittaker's testimony was corn ebo rated by. Kallenbergli,' the German e and the water_ man. The prosecutor positively denied hat ing taken the slightest personal liberty 'with the pri soner. The prisoner in her defence say 1, that Whit-' taker had come, up, to her, accempanied by two °O'er women, and apparently much it, tosicated, and ,had c.emplained to her of his having b , .!en robbed by these women of three one pound notes. Sir ALLAN CHAMBRE directed the Jury to'acquit the prisoner of the capital part of the charge, as there was no evidence of violence, either by word or otherwise, having been resorted to by the pri soner, so as to put the prosecutor in bodily tear. The Jury accordingly found the prisoner pilly of stealing from the person of Jonathan Whittaker. . A vessel arrived at Weymouth, after a passlge of only 17 days from St. Bartholomew's, has brou :lit 1 advice, ,that a few days prior to.l,er• sailing, intelli gence was received at that island, via Antigua, of the revival of commercial intercourse between the United States and Great Britain and her Colonies; that, in consequence, a number of American ves ; sell had arrived at the different Carribee islands with provisions, lumber, and other commodities, which proved a very seasonable supply, as articles of Acne= i Jicau produce had, by reason of the long continuance of the Non-Intercouse, been quite exhausted, and the Planters subjected .to such embarrassments as rendered it difficult for them to carry on their or di 7 nary operations; and'that there were no less than 40 sail of American vessels at St. Bartholomew's pre paring to sail, with cargoes, its return. The. master • also states, that advices bad been received at St. Bartholomew's, mentioning that the insurrection on the Spanish main was stilt going on ; that four Corn= missioners had arrived, deputed to ' Sir GEORGE BECKWITH, from the Spanish Government, re questing arms and ammunition, which was not granted on the Bth of June. The natives, it is- understood, wish to have a free and independent , Government. An action of Crim. Con. has been instituted by a Surgeon and Dentist ofnote against a dashing St a ble keeper. The scene of the amour was in a hoirse in the neighOurhood, of Bond-sireet; and it was disco , . vered through the means of a female servant, whotit the lady had offended. It happened on Sunday s'en night, when the lady was watched to Berkeley square, where she met her paramour, and was dri% en to the house in question. The husband did not rno!est his frail rib, but received her in the street on her leaving the house. Yesterday a 'respeelable Lady attended at the Public Office, Bow -street, and stated to Mr. NARES. the Sitting Magistrate, that she had discoVeted that her servant, a girl only sixteen years of age, was pregnant by her own father. The worthy Magi st tate lamented that, under the circumstances, it Wa4 not possible for him, of his own accord, to proceed against the offender, but sent for the parish officers; it being considered the best means of bringing the wretch to condign punishment. Saturday, as a party of young Ladies and Gentle men were going down the river to view the launch of the Queen Charlotte, at Depi hard, one of the 'Gentlemen unfortunately fell overboard,and though every effort 'was made to save him, yet he was drowned in the sight of tg o of his sisters. , The merits and indisputable value& the celebrat ed Speetacle of the Blood 'tea: Knight, is nnw so fully confirmed and acknowledged by thousands, and tens of thousands; who have beheld, it, diet not a being coming from any part of the country but is sure to pay an early visit to the Royal Amphi theatre.
